Station Wagons

Reader comment on: How Regulation Killed the Station Wagon and Created the Minivan

Submitted by TSF, Jul 5, 2019 21:43

Greenies hate V-8s. Not because they are much more efficient than they used to be. But because they hate the unwashed masses having access to a nice ride. So they want to put us little people in 4 cylinder vehicles. Of course, they take SUVs to their sensors in the mountains.
